DEC 0 71975 Mr. Thomas E."Baca, Director Environmental Improvement Division P. O. Box 958, Crown Building Santa Fe, New Mexico 87503
Dear Mr. Baca:
Enclosed is a summary report of the Church Rock environmental impact essessment efforts of the various federal agencies which my staff has compiled.
I would like to take this opportunity to direct your attention to the following issues that need resolution immediately.
1)
A modification of the BPNL contract has been initiated to expand their services to include statistical review of the Church Rock soil sampling data. Sample collection was essentially completed by October 12, and sample analysis of the majority of samples (about 2500 sa#1s) was completed by November 1,1979.
To date, neither the NF BPNL has been able to obtain EID's computerized tabulation of resu.
3.
Because of this delay, BPNL performance has been severely restricted; therefore, if the required data are not furnished to NRC and BPNL by December 21, 1979, we shall have to terminate this phase of support of the Church Rock assessment.
2)
In addition to the EID sample tabulation, about 1500 samoles analyzed by the mobile BPNL laboratory for UNC have not been identified, organized, nor reported to NRC.
Unless this infonnation l
is obtained from UNC by December 21, 1979, we will not be able to include them in the data base to be used for the statistical interpretation of the dam failure's environmental impact.
There-fore, EID should specifically request that UNC immediately provide the required data to NRC.
If you have any questions regarding this matter please contact me.
Sincerely,
'W
